Corporate Safety Program
The nature of our work commands a culture of safety to ensure that employees are safe no matter where their location or job function — whether a staff member is stationed at a field jobsite or works in an office environment.
Gannett Fleming abides by its corporate Safety and Health Policy, which was originally adopted by the Gannett Fleming Board of Directors in 2001. With significant input and ongoing effort from the firm’s Corporate Safety Group and Safety Committee, the firm provides employees with safety programs and safe workplace practices. As such, safety takes a forefront on the firm's strategic action plan and the firm’s ongoing activities.

Behavior-Based Safety
Gannett Fleming has employed a behavior-based safety program for more than ten years. The program focuses on identifying and mitigating hazards in job safety analysis documents and during task observations with the goal of incident-free operations.
Safety at Work and at Home
To coincide with the National Safety Council's National Safety Month, June is designated as Safety Month at Gannett Fleming. Throughout the month, employees participate in various activities to showcase safety, such as training webinars, safety break meetings, and other safety-themed activities.
